From Tomb of the Mutilated (1992). Their third studio album, produced by Scott Burns and recorded in June 1992, it was released on 22 September 1992 by Metal Blade Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a B.C. Rich Ironbird through a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier, the nearest rig to the one documented for Cannibal Corpse, stands in. Set the amp to a saturated high-gain setting and use the bridge pickup. Published transcriptions put it a half step down (E♭ standard).
